Zen Christianity


I consider myself to be a Zen Christian.

I follow the teachings of both Christ and Buddha to find the path to enlightenment - the path back to God.

Jesus said He was "the way to God".
By following the teachings of Christ, one can reach Zen and become enlightened.

This is also the same thing as Krishna Consciousness.

Christ, Buddha and Krishna are all aspects of the GodHead.

Hereafter


At The Stork Forum, Jon Tees asked this interesting question:

What are your personal beliefs on life after death/the hereafter? Mine are somewhat of a combination of Buddhism and Christianity.

Positive- If you live a good life you go to the place known as Heaven for an X amount of time could be forever or just for a certain number of years before being reincarnated. During this time you are reunited with god, lost loved ones and your ancestors....

Clone souls


At The Stork Forum, Jon Tees asked this interesting question:

Simply put if a human being could be cloned would the clone have a soul?

My answer was this:

Interesting point.

I'd say yes.

However a body is created - birth or cloning - the body will be a vessel for a soul to enter and live in.

A clone who didn't receive a soul wold be stillborn.

Are twins not nature's clones?...

Donnie Darko - Mad World


The song Mad World features in the cult film Donnie Darko. It is a very spiritual other worldy song that fits this tale well.

It was written by Tears For Fears, but this is a version by Gary Jules, and even more haunting and appropriate.


All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Goin' nowhere, goin' nowhere
Their tears are fillin' up...
